Hi everyone,

Welcome to another F1 newsletter, catching up with the news from the last few weeks, and a recap of some recent articles on the BellaOnline site.

In the news:

The 2009 cars are starting to launch, with Ferrari, Toyota and McLaren all unveiling their contenders for the coming season. All three launches were very different, as were the cars.

Webber has given an update on his progress, and says he is training hard to be fit and back behind the wheel as soon as possible. He says he won't be using the broken leg as any excuse once the season starts.

Honda are still looking for a buyer, and the rumours are getting stronger that Nick Fry is trying to organise a management buyout. We will just have to wait and see.
